I'm talking about the idiots who decide to over engineer software to insanity. Like yes, I understand proper architecture and engineering. No, i dont agree that every single module has to be engineered to perfection. Also these same assholes are usually the people who routinely ignore their own code standards, and try bugging me to quick approve their clearly not good looking code. Than they come back and nit pick over mindless idiotic pedantics.

It just depends go to a place where everyone writes everything in python and every app is a Gordian knot where even the people who wrote the stuff dont know where any specific functionality lives. Then have numerous type specific errors wreak havok on your database structures.

Your coders create the DDL?

Why not a DBA create the DDL and coders comply with it?

Because then theres the whole argument over who controls the domain logic does the database or does the application. What ends up happening is it bifurcates into two silos then your back to the problem of not knowing which piece contains which logic and also it becomes lovely when the two layers get into a fight.
